Ongoing inability to generate anything...

What an all-encompassing, ongoing, lingering sense of apathy and lethargy has taken over. I've been stumbling into the office for the last two weeks and generating a very small amount of stuff of little consequence, with very little desire to do much.

Perhaps I should interpret that as a very real expression of fatigue?

The vacation coming will be very welcome.

The collective sense of outrage and indignation about the deceit and deliberate manipulation of our country's public opinion reminds me of Peru's collective sense of outrage and indignation after Alan Garcia's government in the late 1980s--surprising and stunning only by its overwhelming absence.
